We have slowly been revamping our diet to include more organic and all natural food. So Horizon milk has been one great addition to our diet, especially now that Horizon milk includes DHA-Omega 3. I would love to win this Horizon goody bag at Carolina Mama:

I can be very motivated when it comes to certain things. Especially when it's something I really want. The hubs will say I get that "focused" look in my face. Well, um, when it comes to this year's spring cleaning -- the motivation is not quite there yet. But lucky for me, there are some fabulous giveaways going on right now that should definitely help jump-start my cleaning adventure.

A Latte in the Morning is giving away a great Swiffer Wet Jet/Costco GC. Enter HERE. (Ends 4/27).

How cool is this?? Visit 3 Kids and Us for your chance to win an ElectroluxVersatility and an Arm & Hammer gift pack. I love how inexpensive and versatile baking soda is for cleaning and use it whenever I can. The Electrolux Versatility vacuum looks awesome. I could get some serious cleaning done with this. Check out the great features of this vacuum on the Electrolux website.

Giveaways:-Dapper Snapper (Thanks Simply Stacie!) I'm really excited to try this. I have the darndest time trying to keep little J3's pants up.-Yo Gabba Gabba DVD and CD (Thanks My Milwaukee Mommy!)

The Ronald McDonald House of Eastern Wisconsin will have their annual Tab Toss on Thursday, April 22 from 3:30-5:00pm. The aluminum tabs collected are cashed in for money to benefit this charity. We've been collecting aluminum soda tabs all year and now have over 2 full gallon size bags full of tabs! Thank you to all of our family that saved their tabs for us!!

This sounds like a fun event. We get to toss our tabs into a big dumpster (every little bit counts!) and the kids will get to meet Ronald. How fun!

I am so excited!! I just received an email confirmation from Fox 6 that I won tickets to see Glee "Live in Concert" at the Rosemont Theatre near Chicago on May 26. My teenage daughters are huge fans of the show and listen constantly to the Glee music on their Ipods. We are so lucky since this is only a four-city tour- Phoenix, Los Angeles, New York and Chicago.

How cute is this?? I found several of these giveaways going on right now. London Bridge offers many different prints that can be personalized. I absolutely love the one pictured below, but you can find different prints by visiting London Bridge Children.

3/3/10 Rainbow Brite Interactive CD at Frugal Plus. I'm so excited Rainbow Brite is making a comeback. Aww, memories. I gave this to my niece since I thought she would appreciate some Rainbow Brite exposure more than my boys would. I haven't heard yet if she's tried it.

3/8/10 How to Never Look Fat Again book at Growing a Baby in Seattle Reviews.I've had some issues losing weight after these last two pregnancies. Since my youngest isn't that young anymore (he'll be 2 soon), I really can't use the "just had a baby" excuse. I am working on losing weight but this book will definitely be very helpful. I can't wait to read it!

3/10/10 Skinfood Skincare at Simply Stacie. I received a Starter Kit valued at $96 which contained the following: Gourmet Skinfood, Floral Spritz, Rainflowers Jojoba Skintonic, and Rosepetal Whipped Cream. All I have to say is after using this for just one day, my skin felt AH-MAZING!! I love the scent of these products and how easy it is to use. These are great products. I'm so glad that I was introduced to this line because now I'M HOOKED!! Visit Skinfood Skincare HEREto see their other products.

3/10/10 MagnaPod and bonus Toothbrush Holder at A Year in the Life of June Cleaver. The MagnaPod is a very cool organizing tool for your cosmetics. There are many other uses though. My daughter took this to school to use inside her locker for pens/pencils and of course, lip gloss. A Year in the Life of June Cleaver is a great site. I love it because as I'm starting my spring cleaning, my goal is to organize as well. She has some great tips on her blog.Be sure to check her out HERE.

3/13/10 Adorable Baby Dapper Snapper at Simply Stacie. This is such a great idea! The Dapper Snapper is a belt for toddlers. My 3 year old sooo needs this. He has such a little waist so I am constantly hiking up his pants or folding over the top part. No wonder he runs around the house singing the "Pants on the Ground" song! Check out the Dapper Snapper HERE. I picked the Green Camo - can't wait to receive it.

That's my March wins for now. Pretty cool, huh? So, have you won anything lately?? Well, what are you waiting for??? Go enter some giveaways!!

Here's the list:

2/5/10 MOR Cosmetics Marshmallow Lip Balm at Sugar Pop Ribbons. I absolutely love this lip balm. It came in such a pretty package and it feels so luxurious on my lips. I wanted to keep this but my daughter kind of took it over!

2/5/10 Yo Gabba Gabba Ticketsand CD at My Milwaukee Mommy. See my post HERE on this big win. My husband took my 3 year old son this past weekend to see this show and he LOVED it! The seats were great and it was a very exciting show. He won't stop talking about it.

2/9/10 Pedia Lax Fiber Gummies at Sweet Deals for Mom. My kids really like these. They currently eat a multi-gummie vitamin everyday so they are used to the idea. This is a great way to add some extra fiber in their little tummies!

2/10/10 Fiber One Muffins at Mommy? I'm Hungry! I received a coupon in the mail. I haven't redeemed it yet but I know my kids will gobble these up. And another great way to get them to eat some fiber! I'm starting to see a theme here....

Sugar Pop Ribbonsis giving away a Skitter Car right now. I would be the coolest mom ever if I could win this for my Little Skitter Boy. Check out the Skitter Toyswebsite to buy a Skitter Car and get more details. The seat is large enough for 2 children so my Littlest Skitter Boy could ride beyond Little Skitter Boy. How cute would that be?!?
